Here I’ve gathered 8 of the sweetest interactive display surfaces, but they are in no particular order. CLick through to read more about each one.

1. Microsoft ‘Surface’

   

   Microsoft just unveiled this baby today and it’s the first one we’ve seen capable of interacting with your devices through RFID and other wireless technologies.

2. Blue Eye interactive scanner table

   
   
   The Blue Eye table has a glass surface and overhead camera, a projector and a mirror underneath the table. By placing an object on the table surface you can copy it to the screen beneath.

3. Perceptive Pixel interactive touch UI

   
   
   Jeff Han is a researcher at NYU’s Courant Institute, and he has created an interface which responds to touch, hand motions, and is pressure sensitive.

4. ‘Interactive Touchless Display’

   
   
   Lets people “swipe their hand from a distance of up to 15cm away and the built-in sensors translate that movement into a command.”

5. DeLighTable by Thomas Gardner

   
   
   The table has a surface which lights up when you put pressure on it - by moving thick black liquid out of the way to let the light shine through.

6. Microsoft’s TouchLight Technology

   
   
   You will be able to tilt and pan an image, such a refrigerator or airplane. Microsoft is not going to develop the technology itself, but is instead licensing the technology, known as TouchLight, to a start-up.

7. Corian Digital Roulette Table

   

   Now this is what I call, sweet! We’ve seen our fair share of futuristic interactive tables, but this one just seems like fun.

8. iBar Interactive Bar Table

   
   
   The intelligent tracking system of iBar detects all objects touching the surface. This input is used to let the projected content interact dynamically with the movements on the counter.
